About me

My name is Alex Ballinger and I'm standing to be Labour's next MP for Halesowen. 


I've always been driven by public service. I've served with the Royal Marines, led humanitarian projects in the Middle East, and now run a mental health charity that helps people across Birmingham and the Black Country.


I twice served my country in Afghanistan helping keep our country safe, before becoming an aid worker and diplomat. I helped set up schools and hospitals for people fleeing war zones, helped organise aid convoys to Syria and worked on girls education in Pakistan.


I now run a mental health charity that helps people across the region. It's desperately needed. Our NHS is breaking down, austerity has ruined preventative services, and working people are struggling with the cost of living.


I have 20 years of public service behind me, but the most important work I hope to do is as your MP for Halesowen. Please feel free to get in touch using the form below.

Fourteen years of Tory rule have left our schools starved, public transport cut and the NHS on the brink of collapse.

My Priorities

Tackle the Cost-of-Living Crisis

After 14 years of Conservative Government nobody feels better off. Taxes are at record levels and mortgage rates are through the roof. Labour will lower your energy bills and put more money in your pocket.

Increase Policing in Halesowen

Everyone has the right to feel safe in their homes and on their street, but under the Conservatives this simply is not the case. Labour has a plan to recruit 13,000 extra police officers on our streets prioritising tackling anti-social behaviour.

Revitalise our High Streets

Under this Conservative Government we have seen the destruction of our high streets. A Labour Government will back British business and put economic stability first. We will revamp empty shops and scrap business rates to help independent shops on our high streets.

Cut NHS waiting times

Under the Conservatives the NHS waiting list is now at almost 8 million, and people are struggling to get appointments. We will cut NHS waiting lists and end the 8am scramble for GP appointments.

Recruit more Teachers

Labour will work to reduce the cost of childcare, we'll recruit 6,500 more teachers for our schools and give employers the opportunity to train their workforce in new skills.
